As you might have been wondering from our previous posts, we have two intersecting themes running throughout BM3T Shabbaton!

Throughout the weekend (and everything we do at TBE), we strive to build and strengthen our kehilah kedoshah (holy community) through our actions and relationships. Part of being a member of a holy community is playing our part and contributing to the community. Each one of us brings something unique and special. When combined, we all can create something beautiful. Welcome to BM3T School of Rock. Acting as different members of the band - bringing our own creativity and talents, BM3T participants are learning different ways to work together.

This afternoon, we took advantage of the beautiful weather and engaged in a number of team-building challenges which focused on communication skills, leadership styles, group process and strengthening relationships. Unfortunately, the Internet has been spotty at camp, so we'll have to wait until we get home to upload our pictures. A preview is available on our Facebook page (Facebook.com/TBEYouth).

Right now, band members are working together to create songs, choreography and staging, album artwork and much more...in preparation for tonight's BM3T BATTLE OF THE BANDS!

We're having a blast, and hope you're enjoying your Shabbat! Leave us a comment or like our pictures and let us know what you think!
